145 is Pagliacci
here's a few easy ones...
Merciless beauty
has tables turned by Tartar
- insomnia rules.
Slave-princess betrays
her lover and conqueror
- but they share a tomb
Jailbird at a ball?
Swinging, flirting, and disguise.
It's just so batty!
Tommo

And a couple more before I sign off for the evening.....
Big lummox kills mouse,
then dog, then his boss's wife.
Friend's bullet saves him.
Many gods no more -
one wife and one god for me!
(But priests kick me out.)

Yes, indeed, George! However, nobody's got 88 yet! Before curtain up, Vengeful gypsy should be warned ‘Don’t play with matches’! |

Is that the lot for now, then? (Tommo's 3-pack was Turandot, Aida, Deflate-a-mouse, and... ah. About his double I have no idea. But apart from that?) I must say, these are almost ready to publish!  |
